While you're here, how about checking out the Astronomy Book List ?

Fellow Mapugers,

After another roll of film that appears to be underexposed after trying to
get shots of relatively bright objects like M13, M11, M12 etc. at prime
focus of my 10" F/10 LX200 using ISO800 film (incidentally using exposure
times in the range of 5 to 7 minutes), I am getting a little bewildered. I
am positive that I am doing something (for a lack of any better word) stupid
(and yes, I did remove the dew cover for you wise crackers out there!) :-)


Hey Doug,

5-7 minutes is not long enough. Still, the general outline of the globs
should have shown up. If your dew cover was off, flip mirror out of the way
and the shutter speed was properly set(I once shot a whole roll at 1/60th
of a second unknowingly) then you need to work a little with the camera
store guys.

Clear darkness
Alan
